Jharkhand Academic Council, (Amendment) Act, 2006 (Jharkhand Act 02, 2007)

Abstract

Whereas, Jharkhand Academic Council Act (Jharkhand Act 2 of 2003) was enacted to establish an Academic Council in the State of Jharkhand for conducting examination of Intermediate Education (+2), Secondary Education, Sanskrit Education and Madrasa Education. The Academic Council shall recommend courses of studies for such examination and recommend recognition of Intermediate Education Institutions, High Schools, Sanskrit Schools and Madrasa to the State Government and generally for carrying out such other subjects or duties as may be considered necessary for the purpose hereinafter stated. And, where as after the enactment of Jharkhand Academic Council Act 2002 during the course of execution of functions assigned to the Council, it was felt that some important provisions such as appointment and removal/disqualification of Chairman and members of the Council, conduct of the business of the Council, provision of important officers essential for the execution of functions assigned to the Council, constitution of managing committee/Governing body of the institutions etc. were not there or provisions were not clearly spelt out, due to which the council was experiencing difficulties in the smooth discharge of its function and duties and so it became necessary to amend certain provisions of Jharkhand Academic Council Act, 2002.
